Mobile Suit Gundam is a televised anime series, created by Sunrise. Created and directed by Yoshiyuki Tomino, it premiered in Japan on Nagoya Broadcasting Network between April 7, 1979 and January 26, 1980, spanning 43 episodes. The series has since gone on to become a symbol of anime worldwide.

For the 30th anniversary of the original series, a life size Gundam was created and placed in the streets of Tokyo. Other models have been made, but this is the largest and most elaborate ever to have been created. For those of you in Tokyo, today is the last day to see it! Pretty cool stuff.

More then 2 years post the Launch of Bernhard Willhelm’s first store in Shibuya, Tokyo, I’m still amazed of how Item Idem, (an amazing collective of hyper-crea; designers, artists, architect…which Bernhard is a part of) and the Japanese in general so are advanced in trends. The store is a reproduction of a Tokion bum’s lifestyle. As you can see below they are pushing the theme to the max !!
